“…Similarly, E. surinamensis also has a robust, strongly chitinized body and is not dependent on high humidity. This species probably absorbs water for metabolism from its diet, and its phenology is synchronized to seasonal water availability, remaining as nymphs (which are vulnerable to desiccation) during the rainy season and developing into adults in the dry season [55]. Similar adaptations may occur in Lerneca sp.1.…”

We evaluated the relation of cricket species richness and composition with forest regeneration time, evaluating canopy and litter depth as environmental drivers. Effects of forest patch area, nearest distance to the 300-year patch, cricket abundance, sampling sufficiency, and nestedness were also evaluated. We collected 1174 individuals (five families, 19 species). Species richness increased asymptotically with regeneration time and linearly with canopy cover and litter depth. Canopy cover increased linearly, while litter depth increased asymptotically. Richness was not affected by patch area and nearest distance to the 300-year patch. Richness increased with cricket abundance, and this explanation could not be distinguished from regeneration time, evidencing collinearity of these two explanatory variables. Rarefaction curve slopes increased with regeneration time. Species composition differed among patches, with no nested pattern. We suggest that regeneration and consequent increases in canopy and litter promote recovery of cricket biodiversity, abundance, and changes in species composition. We conclude that the recovery of cricket diversity involves an increase along the spatial scale of complementarity, together with a change in species composition.

“…Alexander (1957) described the Various genera and species of Tettigoniidae and Gryllidae. Zefa et al (2006) erected the life cycle and wet and dry seasonal samplings from the tropical distribution of Eneoptera surinamensis (Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Eneopterinae) (De-Geer, 1773). Seasonal Alluvial Semi-deciduous Forest were studied at Brazil (25º27'54.9" S; 54º34'27.9" W), Field investigations were made at 20 to 24-day intervals, starting on April 30 th , 2002 to April 25 th , 2003.…”

Field crickets were collected from agricultural fields and the surrounding vegetation of district Jacobabad through traditional insect nets and by hand picking. The collected specimens were 321, which were sorted out into single sub-family Gryllinae falling into 05 genera and 07 species, i.e. Gryllodes sigillatus (Walker, 1869), Gryllodes supplicans (Walker, 1859), Gryllus bimaculatus (De-Geer, 1773), Acheta burdigalensis (Latreille, 1804), Acheta domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758), Gryllopsis histrio (Saussure, 1877) and Teleogryllus commodus (Walker, 1869). The maximum population of Acheta domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758) was 36%, and Gryllodes supplicans (Walker, 1859) was 24%. While the minimum population of Gryllopsis histrio (Saussure, 1877) was 3%, and Acheta burdigalensis (Latreille, 1804) was 5%, respectively. Additionally, a detailed description of species and distribution is provided. Finding field crickets from this area will be instrumental for the farmers and researchers concerned with the biodiversity of this group.

The cricket subfamily Eneopterinae has recently been the focus of many research papers on various subjects ranging from systematics and phylogeny (Robillard & Desutter-Grandcolas, 2004a, 2005, 2006; Desutter-Grandcolas & Robillard, 2006; Robillard, 2006; Otte, 2007), acoustic communication (Desutter-Grandcolas, 1998; Robillard & Desutter-Gradcolas, 2004b; Robillard et al., 2007), behavioural studies (Preston-Mafham, 2000), life history (Zefa et al., 2006; Miyoshi et al., 2007), to chromosomal structure (Ferreira & Cella, 2006, and references within).
